AITEX will attend the VII edition of Home Textiles Premium by TextilHogar in September, the only international home textile fair in Spain that is held at Feria Valencia from September 19 to 22.

The aim of the AGROLOOP project is to apply AITEX’s know-how in the field of mechanical textile recycling to a sector that produces large quantities of homogeneous waste that is not being fully revalued

The project, with a duration of more than 3 years, began on January 1, 2023, with the initial meeting taking place last week in Alicante, which was attended by representatives of the 15 participating partners.

The European project REDOL, in which AITEX participates, aims to promote Zaragoza as a zero waste city by 2040, recycling 100% of the urban waste produced.

AITEX, through the AGROMATTER NETWORK, has organized a conference on AGROMATTER in which new developments of highly sustainable technical materials derived from by-products or waste from the agricultural industry have been presented.

OEKO-TEX® presents its new carbon and water footprint tool, which shows the amount of carbon emissions and impacts on water that can be associated with the different fibers produced in the facility

AITEX is working on this through the GREEN THINKING project to demonstrate how applying the principles of eco-design significantly reduces environmental impact in different sectors of the textile industry in the Valencian Community.

To help face these challenges, AITEX places its full array of technical facilities and resources at the disposal of the textile industry through its Circular Economy and Sustainability Technical Unit.
